Blake Griffin has sprained MCL, could be out two months

Even more bad news came down on Tuesday when it was announced that Blake Griffin could be out for at least two months after spraining his MCL on Monday night against the crosstown-rival Lakers.

Speaking to reporters after practice, Nance shared that he continues to monitor the standings, and that he and his teammates have their eyes set on the bigger picture.

However, Rivers' son Austin was the player who collided into Griffin's left knee when he was attempting to collect a loose ball on the floor.

Rivers appeared to have fallen on Griffin, whose knee got twisted as he landed on his back. Ultimately, it doesn't really matter, since Rivers isn't alleging any misconduct from Ball, just describing an unfortunate basketball play.

The Clippers have not had good luck with injuries this season. Still, Griffin will miss a substantial amount of time for the third straight season.

The departure of Chris Paul led the team to splash out on Griffin as they were desperate to keep one of its stars.

He has sustained several serious injuries through the years, including season-ending toe surgery after Game 3 of the Clippers' first-round loss to Utah in the Western Conference playoffs last season. "Usually when you go in like that, that hard. they call it", Rivers said.

"We're not going to rush anybody back. You got to coach your guys to believe that and that's how I've always been".
